Mystery Woman

Samantha Kinsey owns a small bookshop called Mystery Woman in a quiet town. She loves true‑crime books and sells mystery novels. But her life changes when she starts solving real crimes. With her clever assistant Philby, she sometimes catches killers before the police do.

In the first film, Samantha attends a party with her ex and senses that a “suicide” was really murder. Everyone else thinks it was sad, but simple, but Samantha trusts her instincts. She investigates and uncovers secrets from the guests. She finds clues and asks questions until the truth comes to light.

In later films, Samantha takes on even bigger mysteries. In one case, her friend Barbara loses out in a family inheritance after her brother dies in a suspicious crash. Barbara asks Samantha to develop photos taken that day, and soon Barbara is also killed. Samantha dives deep into the family to uncover a plan based on greed and betrayal.

Another story brings Samantha into music when a band promoter is found dead during a charity concert at her shop. With Philby’s help, Samantha questions the band members, uncovers hidden secrets, and reveals the killer behind the music business.

Each film feels cozy and familiar. Samantha is brave, curious and kind. Philby is mysterious, smart and always ready to help. Their bond helps them work well together. Though the mysteries can feel serious, they unfold at a gentle pace that feels safe.
